Question on all freeze cycles

Hi,

I am wondering why some of us were given steroids on all freeze cycles (Dexamethasone or prednisolone) Without transfer, there is no risk of autoimmune reaction on implantation.

I know that steroids are not in fashion until covid is resolved but I would like to understand the rationale.
